My point was that IGNs criticism isn't exclusive to Nintendo. They've said dumb things about the other consoles as well, but the Nintendo fans on this site seem to think that the world is out to get Nintendo, when realistically they just pick and choose what they want to hate or classify as bias, just so they can have a weak argument to use when it comes to stupid things like console comparisons, sales comparisons or software comparisons. Saying 'IGN are biased and they hate Nintendo!' is easier than just admitting that the thing they like may have a few issues.
If you can link me to the articles your reffering to then that'd help, but it still doesn't change that it's just their opinion, it's not like Mario isn't being overused, Nintendo wasn't sucking from 2008 until 2010 in terms of releases, they haven't been lazy when it comes to creating a decent online store or game network and the lack of online in NSMBWii does make it less favorable (for the reviewer) when it's a game based around multi-player. I've also played some PSN/XBLA games that have looked better than NSMBWii and actually have an online system. If they said that Mario Galaxy was a horrible game, that full backwards compatability was a stupid feature, that it was hard to develop for or that it didn't have any good games at all, then this thread would make sense.
Besides the closing comments to the 3DS review, I didn't ready any of the IGN articles on the device and that's because I have more trust worthy sites that I visit for my reviews and articles. IGN aren't good at what they do, they make mistakes in plenty of their articles and reviews and rarely retract them, that doesn't make them bias against Nintendo, it just makes them bad journalist.

Reading your post gave me a headache as I fear you know nothing about which you speak but this is like the fourth or fifth time you've said similar things and I don't really feel like pointing the obvious out again.
Basically, if you don't get it, then why comment on it? You obviously don't know what makes NSMB Wii what it is, I wouldn't expect you to by now, but if you don't get it why downplay those that do and get upset at "journalists" like Daemon Hatfield... plus if you haven't seen those articles you must have been under a rock, they've been brought up time and time again... hell IGNs own Nintendo base flat out protested Daemons actions on his podcast and wrote letters to Matt, Mark, and Craig.
The whole 2008 to 2010 release thing was comical

Yes, I'm wrong and your right. Nintendo are perfect, there is no reason to ever post any negative press against them and everyone who does is evil. Greg Miller, Hilary Goldstein, Colin Moriaty and Anthony Gallegos have some weird agenda against Nintendo and they go out of their way to only post negative things about Nintendo. Sony and Microsoft are perfect in their eyes and so they never ever get bad press and all their exclusive games are given extremely high scores.
You haven't pointed out anything that hasn't been pointed out before, you think IGN (like the rest of the Western media) hate Nintendo. Your mind won't be changed and no matter how many arguments are brought up, you'll just ignore it or just laugh it off.
Stop being immature and just accept that IGN treats the Wii as well or as bad as it does the other consoles and maybe try and get off the 'World against the Wii' bandwagon.
